Abstract
Several studies have shown that an oxycodone/naloxone combination (ratio 2:1) provides analgesia and less constipation in non-cancer patients receiving relatively low doses of this formulation.

The substitution with the same doses (240mg/day) of regular controlled-release oxycodone was effective in regaining adequate analgesia.
